Tidal power station. Construction of SeaGen in Strangford Lough,Northern Ireland. This is the world's first commercial tidal stream power station,using a turbine to harness the energy in tidal currents. It is four times more powerful than any other tidal stream generator in the world,producing 1.2 Megawatts across 18-20 hours a day,while the tides flow into and out of Strangford Lough. It was connected to the grid in July 2008. Photographed in March 2008 | |
